Identity and Access Management: Oracle's OIM Configuration

Learn how connectors translate between Oracle Identity Manager and target systems, exposing out-of-the-box, generic technology, and custom options for seamless provisioning and reconciliation.

Set up a system schema connection, create a table, insert two sample users, and fetch user data to configure the HRMS source for reconciliation in Oracle OIM.

Install and configure the generic database connector for Oracle OIM, map user attributes for full or incremental reconciliation, then run the scheduler to reconcile users and verify in OIM.

Conduct post reconciliation analysis by exploring the design console and reconciliation rules, including matching rules and resource objects, to determine when to create or update users and establish links.

Analyze post reconciliation at the database level, tracing changes from the user form and process form through tables such as Svea, parameter definition, and orchestration, plus job history.

Download Windows Server 2012 from the link by selecting the ISO image, filling details, and choosing language; then download and rename the file for installation.

Install Windows Server in a virtual machine, select the standard edition, configure networking, and promote it to an Active Directory domain controller, with guest additions for full screen.

Follow simple installation steps to install the guest edition, reboot the machine, and verify that the distribution is installed and takes effect immediately; next lessons will cover additional configurations.

Install the Active Directory Domain Services role with management tools in server manager, then promote the server to a domain controller for a forest with the domain gatekeeper dot com.

Install apache directory studio to browse the active directory from your machine and connect using host or IP, then bind as administrator to explore organizational units and groups.

Download the two connector files, the Active Directory connector and the Connector Server, to bridge Java calls to dot net and enable integration with Active Directory before configuration.

Learn how to place connector binaries in the correct directories, configure the connector default directory, and prepare the Oracle OIM connector server and Active Directory setup for installation.

Install and configure the connector server, reset the key with a script, add the missing active directory bundle, and verify the service on port 8759 with correct host details.

Install and configure the active directory connector through the administrative console, load the connector, and create the active directory resource and resource object to enable application integration.

Explore the fundamentals of IT resources and resource objects in Oracle's OIM, including their virtual representation, attributes, and how these objects connect to real targets in identity and access management.

Create an application instance by attaching a resource object to auto-generate a process and provisioning form in Oracle Identity Manager, using a sandbox to safeguard changes.

Create entitlement groups in Active Directory, search and assign entitlements to a user, and verify the updates via catalog synchronization and AD membership checks.

Explore how adapters in Oracle Identity Manager are Java programs that extend out-of-the-box features, with types including process task adapter, task assignment adapter, regenerator, and repopulated after.

Create a prepopulate adapter to auto fill the organization name on the AD process form by mapping from the user form. Use design console to configure and test provisioning.
